Discussion Is Solitaire+ “Multiplayer” on Apple Arcade actually fair?
I’ve been playing Solitaire+ on Apple Arcade, and the “multiplayer” mode just feels… strange.
Sometimes my opponent finishes the entire game in less than a minute, like magic. Honestly, no matter how fast you play, a normal Klondike run should take at least a few minutes, but these opponents breeze through with impossible speed. It makes it feel like there’s no way to win.
Then the next day, it completely flips — the cards are arranged so that every game is winnable, and I end up beating all my opponents easily. It’s like the game decides when you should lose and when you should win, instead of being fair.
It doesn’t really feel like live multiplayer at all, more like the game is just simulating opponents or manipulating the deal.
Has anyone else noticed this? Is this how the game is supposed to work, or is it just me?
